Re: USB OTG support

Managed (not directly, but through an error message by Solid Explorer) to discover the mount point.
It's /mnt/media_rw/C0AE-BC1D in my case.
This is consistent with the information on https://forum.xda-developers.com/app...vices-t3285898.
Added that path to the Media Library Music folders, but "Access is denied" when I click it in Browse, while /mnt doesn't show media_rw.
Read that access to such folders require root access but maybe this isn't entirely precise since ES File Explorer can access it.

Re: USB OTG support

Sorry, cannot confirm /mnt/media_rw/XXXX-XXXX working on my Nexus 5X right now, all I get is "access denied", apparently the app needs root access for this, which is not an option for us.

As noted in the linked posts, Android's Storage Access Framework is required to access USB storage. We do support it but it's ridiculously slow to index media and hidden by default.
In order to add a folder via SAF, use "specify path manually", then "use system folder picker".

Sure, but if I "Specify path manually" then "Launch system folder pick", the resulting list does not include the OTG drive, even though it's there.

Re: USB OTG support

Follow up on Android Storage Access Framework issues-

Update 1.0.89 is now available for beta testers. A rather nasty bug has been fixed; I've added some multi threading optimizations specially aiming to improve Android SAF performance.
USB OTG should be somewhat less painful to use now.
